This project collects the genomic and transcriptomic data generated for Haliaeetus albicilla, common name white-tailed eagle, as part of the European Reference Genome Atlas Pilot Project (https://www.erga-biodiversity.eu/pilot-project). The data under this project are made available subject to the Tree of Life Open Data Release Policy (https://www.darwintreeoflife.org/project-resources/). The assembly is provided by the Wellcome Sanger Institute Tree of Life Programme (https://www.sanger.ac.uk/programme/tree-of-life/) in collaboration with Sneabjörn Pálsson (University of Iceland, species ambassador ERGA), Kristinn H Skarphedinsson (The Icelandic Institute of Natural History) and the European Reference Genome Atlas Pilot Project team.
